Reef Fishing

These trips generally last from 9am til 5pm and can incorporate mackerel fishing on the way to the reef site. The famouse Eddystone, Hands Deeps and Brenton reefs are all less thann 3/4 of an hour away from Looe. These trips include both drift fishing for species such as pollock and ling, as well as anchoring for larger species such as conger. Reef fishing is suitable of any type of angler.

Sharking

This trip is usually an 8hr day with a 15 to 25 mile steam from Looe in order to reach the Gulf Stream. Once the destination has been reached, a chum trail is laid and the day is spent fishing for mackerel whilst waiting for the blue shark to pick up the scent. This is a game of patience! All equipment is provided. This trip is for those who like to relax....until the sharks arrive! Parties welcome!

Mystique II is the top wreck fishing vessel in Looe with unsurpassed catched of pollock, cod, ling and conger. Trips can be variable in duration depending on the weather. This type of trip is for more experienced anglers.

The Skipper

Dave bond has been a commercial fisherman since the age of 17. He started on lining and netting vessels and then progressed to trawling and scalloping boats. At age 25 Dave bought his first boat and after some success decided to have a new boat built. After using this new boat for trawling and scalloping Dave decided to sell this boat and commission the first Mystique which was a Lochin 33. This was used for commercial fishing through the winter and angling in the summer. As boat technology progressed, Dave decided to have Mystique II built to the highest specification, and incorporating the latest technology in angling vessels.
